Ashutosh Chauhan updated HIVE-13085:
------------------------------------
Status: Open (was: Patch Available)
Agree with [~thejas] Since we already have {{select username();}} this
functionality looks redundant.
> Need an API / configuration parameter to find out the authenticated user
> from beeline

> This request has come from the customer who wanted an API / configuration
> parameter to identify the authenticated user from the beeline. This is
> similar to the request done in the thread below:
> https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/2620/hadoop-environment-variable-or-configuration-varia.html
> But this would not be a feasible option for the requestor. So here the
> general ask is once the user is logged in to the beeline, they wanted to
> identify who this user is and then use this information to enforce the ACLs
> on the tables through the customer's custom code.
